Docker Usage

Use Docker when you want a packaged AgentSight runtime for container, CI, or isolated Linux environments. Docker does not remove the eBPF permission requirements: the container must observe the host kernel and host processes, so it needs privileged mode and host mounts.

For local day-to-day use, the release binary plus sudo agentsight top or sudo agentsight record -- ... in README.md is usually simpler.

Requirements

• Linux host with eBPF support
• Docker access
• --privileged
• --pid=host
• --network=host when you want the web UI and host-network behavior to be straightforward
• Host mounts for /sys, /usr, and /lib so process and SSL probes can resolve host state and libraries

Monitor Python AI Tools

docker run --privileged --pid=host --network=host \
  -v /sys:/sys:ro -v /usr:/usr:ro -v /lib:/lib:ro \
  ghcr.io/eunomia-bpf/agentsight:latest \
  record --comm python

Monitor Claude Code

Claude Code uses a user-local binary. Mount the Claude install directory and pass the binary path inside the container:

docker run --privileged --pid=host --network=host \
  -v /sys:/sys:ro -v /usr:/usr:ro -v /lib:/lib:ro \
  -v "$HOME/.local/share/claude:/claude:ro" \
  ghcr.io/eunomia-bpf/agentsight:latest \
  record --comm claude --binary-path /claude/versions/2.1.39

Adjust /claude/versions/2.1.39 to the version installed on the host.

Notes

• A normal unprivileged Docker container cannot load eBPF probes or inspect host processes.
• Docker's default seccomp profile can block eBPF-related syscalls; --privileged avoids that for local testing and CI runners where this is acceptable.
• Captured SQLite databases can contain prompts, responses, file paths, headers, and network targets. Treat saved session databases as sensitive.
